Appears to get good gas mileage too, over 26 mpg on highway and its not even broken in yet. (Not exact because don't know if tank was at very top when dealer gave it to us, we've only filled it up once so far.) We already love love love our 5!
Thanks.
Just picked up a Platinum Silver touring (Lansdale, PA), and had about the best/smoothest/easiest purchase experience ever. Replacing my wife's car, so I won't get to drive it much, but we're both impressed so far.
Delivered with 34 miles on it -- about half of which are from our test drive. We'll keep an eye on MPG and see how it performs for us.
We were driving my 2004 Scion xB for the past two years, but the frequent drive from Northern to Southern California to visit our respective families was beginning to cause to much wear and tear on the front end and windshield (which we had to have replaced twice already)...We needed something just as plush that could handle the road trips and escape most of the damage our xB was getting and decided to go with the 5...
So far so good and everything is just great after our first four days of owning it...In fact, we drove it back to Northern California from SoCal on the second day we had it!!! The long road trip was a breeze, passing slower traffic was as easy as it gets, and the seats kept us both comfortable the entire trip...My wife actually fell asleep in the passenger seat saying that it was such a smooth and quiet ride that it was hard not to
Happy Driving Everyone!!!

I purchased my Mazda5 from Roto Mazda in Arlington Hts, IL last August. I strongly recommend this dealer if you are still in the market for a Mazda. We had such a pleasant experience with one of the sales persons there, we went back a few months later and purchased a brand new Mazda3. I can email you the dealer info and the sales person's name if you'd like. Good luck!

Sorry, I haven't been checking this bbs lately. Anyway, I'd be more than happy to email you the dealer info. Since I don't have your email address, could you send one to me? My email addy is in my profile. Thanks!

I am just west of TO - did you buy or lease? What dealership do you go through? What did you pay?
Your feedback on this would be greatly appreciated!

I'm considering buying a Mazda5 in the Bay Area and saw your post. Where did you buy your new car in the Bay Area? I'm just beginning the process and want to look at the car with my family. We too will likely use the car for trip to/from Los Angeles so the Grapevine seems like a good test of the engine power-did you have any problems or found the strain of having the AC on while ascending the Grapevine problematic at all?
Thanks

So far we love the car. We were eyeing the 5 for 2 years now. even 7-8 months before officially available, we were checking the original mazda.ca mazda5 forums....
Yeeeahh...! We are looking to purchase some more accessories..I am in the process of compiling a list of accessories vendors. If other members already have a list, can you share with us here ??
The arm rest for the driver is to narrow an short.

I saw the post from dabatman. . .
Did you get your car? What do you think of the Mazda 5? How does it work for your 3 kids? I have a 7 yr old, 4 yr old, and 16 month old. I want to make sure there is room and that they are comfortable.
Any downsides? Would love any comments and advice you can give. Or hear from anyone else. I am currently driving a Volvo 240 wagon, but need a newer car and more room for my kids. My husband does not want a minivan and I do not want a sedan or wagon that won't sit 6.
